Link status query firmware messages originating from the VFs are forwarded
to the PF. The driver handles these interactions in a workqueue for the
VF and PF. The VF driver waits for the response from the PF in the
workqueue. If the PF and VF driver are running on the same host and the
work for both PF and VF are queued on the same workqueue, the VF driver
may not get the response if the PF work item is queued behind it on the
same workqueue. This will lead to the VF link query message timing out.
To prevent this, we create a private workqueue for PFs instead of using
the common workqueue. The VF query and PF response will never be on
the same workqueue.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
